These sources of anxiety may be exacerbated for firstgeneration college students, students suffering under financial duress, or both.Studies of anxiety remediation strategies among engineering students are typically conductedwith an eye to improving a particular course or program overall so as to benefit future students.While these efforts may result in average or program-cultural decreases in student anxiety, pointsources of anxiety for individual

They want, is the building gonna stand and how much is it gonna cost me. And I think so many people at this school think [liberal arts] classes are a joke, which they are at this school. I mean, it‟s a total joke. But I think I would toughen up that part of the curriculum because, while we‟re engineers and we need good technical degrees, we also have to be able to function in society and interface with society and explain our engineering fast to people that have no technical training.In summary, Hillary was highly socially integrated with her school.

The most successful student-led project in terms of studentlearning and motivation has been the capture and processing of weather images produced bythe National Oceanic and Aeronautics Administration (NOAA) satellites (Bazdresch, Velayudhan& Johnson, 2016; Velayudhan & Bazdresch, 2016).

Furthermore, within engineering education, variousspecial groups have been studied at some length, including women and ethnic minorities, but lesshas centered on adult students.Two recent areas of research that may have connections to adult engineering students includework on United States military veterans in engineering and the integration of peer tutors and peerquality managers in the learning

Anothermethod is to require each student to find a hosting firm and develop a case study (relatingto the content of the course) that is presented to the class. One more strategy formaximizing outside of class behavior relates to the time consuming activity of viewingaudio visual materials such as DVDs. Require the students to view the materials on theirown time at the library (room use only) and write a three paragraph “executive summary”that is collected and serves as discussion points during class.

This can then be carried into futuresituations, providing the holder with an idea of what to expect in that situation15. Conceptualknowledge can be related to the “Understanding” level of Bloom’s Taxonomy16. While thislevel is not often considered to be difficult for students, it is one of the foundations of higherlearning. Higher thought is likely to be clouded if that foundation is weak, unclear, ormisunderstood15.

Even though much progress has been made at Mercer recently in integrating designwithin the engineering science curriculum, students still have difficulty applying their engineering scienceunderstanding to the task of making good design decisions. This is particularly true when the project ismultidisciplinary and the functional requirements include those that are difficult to quantify. Often, thestudent’s experience with the aspect of design methodology dealing with feasibility and merit analysis hasbeen limited to classroom exercises. When an actual device must be designed, built, and tested, and thestudents must interface with a real client

Teachers have recognized that the studentsmust be provided with an opportunity to develop their problem-solving skills in addition tomastering a particular body of information. Furthermore, many of our educational institutionshave tried to move away from emphasizing the establishment of strong knowledge-base. Themodern trend is to develop an interactive problem-solving pedagogy that encourages thedevelopment of learners’ creativity, understanding, and written and oral communication skills.In a learning paradigm, it is observed that evaluation is holistic, and student success outcomesare what is measured. Many scholars have recommended and
